On the Turing Degrees of Divergence Bounded Computable Reals

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 3526))

Abstract

The d-c.e. (difference of c.e.) and dbc (divergence bounded computable) reals are two important subclasses of Δ\(_{\rm 2}^{\rm 0}\)-reals which have very interesting computability-theoretical as well as very nice analytical properties. Recently, Downey, Wu and Zheng [2] have shown by a double witness technique that not every Δ\(_{\rm 2}^{\rm 0}\)-Turing degree contains a d-c.e. real. In this paper we show that the classes of Turing degrees of d-c.e., dbc and Δ\(_{\rm 2}^{\rm 0}\) reals are all different.
